Waycross Facts!
Much lius been .sai-1 in thii paper concerning the various
phases of Young Men’a Christian Aaaociatiou work. Itcferouco lias
boon made to tho liolji that lias been given young men and boya in
various ways; but it is not likely that many of the people realize
the tremendous uuder-eurreut of character building ami character
strengthening that ia going on in a quiet way through tho work of
the association in our own city. Wo tako occasion to quota a few
out of tho many instances that will givo somewhat of an idea,
i hough a limited one, of the far-reaching character of its activities.
From a business lean of prouiincnco: “You cauuot imagine
how much I miss tho gymnasium and other advantages of tho
Young Men’s Christian Association. You will remember that I had
a room in your building for a month. Tho advantages taken of the
gymnaaium every morning did me much good. I am aurprised that
ao few men of Waycroia take advantage of it. I certainly hopo
that I may secure a room in your building on uiy return.”
From a young man: “If God and you will forgivo me, I will
never be guilty of taking monoy again as long as 1 live. I give iny
heart to God and will join tho Church tomorrow. Don’t
forget to pray for me and I will never disappoint you.”
From a young man of foreign nationality: "I eamo to you an
outcast and a wanderer on earth and atrangcr to God. You helped
me; therefore, with your help and tho help of God, I will become a
better mau. It must have been the hand of God that led me here.
Words cannot oxplaiu my gratefulness but I will allow how thank
ful 1 am in the future.”
From another young man: “I came to you a stranger without
a friend iu this town and you took mo in, allowing me tho right aide
of liie. I thank you for this kind deed and will show there is some
manhood in me by doing the right thing, f.am done with the fast
life and am going to start anew with God’s help.”
’ Prom a pastor: “It was a joy to my heart to hear Rrothcr
lift his heart to God in prayer at our prayer meeting. 1
say it for the encouragement of your association. With best wishes,
yours cordially.”
The Wayerosa Association has never been properly equipped to
do satisfactory work. It has been compelled, as one friend aptly
put it, to try “to fly with one wing.” The campaign now drawing
to a close is for the purpose of removing this stigma from the good
name of our fair city. The proposition is a plain matter of bus
iness. An industry valued at about $100,000.still lacks a small
amount of having subscriptions enough to save it from the block of
the auctioneer. It needs not only this amount to save it but an ad
ditional amount sufficiently large to properly equip it and afford
opportunity to do a work satisfactory to its officers ami to the
public.

Some very agreeable, pleasant
and important news is imparted
to our readers. Gray, the Quaker

Gray, the man who makes hun
dreds of friends daily, owing to
his sincerity and honesty. Gray,

so much about, but who has never
before visited Waycross. He is
expected here Monday and Tues

morning will open the sale of the
wonderful Quaker herb remedies
at tho Cherokee Pharmacy. Now,
what will he do—and prove!
’First of all, should this be seen by
any person unfortunate enough to
be afflicted with a tape worm,
Gray will give a bottle of the

blood trouble, indigestion, consti

talk to Gray, the Quaker health

try the Quaker remedies, the price
of the same will be refunded if
they fail to benefit. This is how
Gray proves what he says. Don’t
forget. Any person afflicted with
a tape worm will be given a free
bottle, which will remove it. The
Next, if your children are pale, more people call, the better Gray
